Hello from the Road

Greetings!!

Today kicks off my much-awaited holiday to the States! To say I am excited would be an understatement.

And let me tell you, today has been a bit of a Murphy's Law kind of day. First, I missed not one, but two airport busses. Luckily, I arrived at the airport just in time to catch my first flight to Amsterdam (and even have a glass of wine!). Then, my next flight to Detroit was delayed about 40 minutes, which meant that I would have to run in order have a chance to make my final connection to Pittsburgh. While trying turn my phone on after the flight, I managed to enter the PIN for my SIM card in wrong too many times and completely lock myself out of my phone. Typical me. Luckily, that flight was delayed as well, so I made it just in the knick of time! (Fun fact: my parents were on the same flight--we are in Pittsburgh together for a much overdue family reunion!).

The trip hasn't been all stress, however! On my flight from Stavanger to Amsterdam, I was seated in the "business class" section purely by chance. When they brought this amazing breakfast, I was so surprised! It was as delicious as it looks, and really hit the spot after running back and forth all morning with my two heavy suitcases!

Now I am curled up in my hotel bed after a nice meal with my parents, a hot shower, and a face mask. I don't know about you guys, but I always feel like there is a layer of filth all over me after I have been travelling all day. Nothing beats the feeling of washing it off and curling up for a good night's sleep.

Speaking of which--that is what I am off to do now!Have a good night/day (to be fair, my body has no clue what time it is, ha!)! I will be back soon with another upodate!
